Two-view correspondence learning aims to distinguish true correspondences (inliers) from false ones (outliers) in image pairs by leveraging their underlying differences. Existing methods mainly rely on coordinate-based geometric consistency.
Cross-view feature matching aims to establish reliable correspondences across images with large viewpoint variations. Over the past decade, the field has evolved from task-specific models toward increasingly unified and generalizable correspondence models, with recent progress further driven by the emergence of vision foundation models (VFMs).

Cross-view geo-localization is challenging due to drastic viewpoint changes and large appearance discrepancies between street-level and satellite imagery. Although existing methods often use geometric warping to expose co-visible cues, such transformations rely on restrictive spatial assumptions and inevitably introduce severe visual distortions under view-dependent visibility, yielding noisy supervision and fragile correspondences.
Multi-query vehicle ReID aims to leverage complementary information from diverse views for robust feature learning. However, current methods suffer from simplistic feature fusion and thus easily ignores some important view information and cross-view relationships.
arXiv:2606. 07117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper presents Native3D, the first end-to-end 3D scene generation framework that completely bypasses 2D intermediate representations.

Local feature matching is a fundamental component of photogrammetry, enabling accurate image correspondence critical for tasks such as 3D reconstruction, stereo mapping, and visual localization. While recent detector-free matching methods, like LoFTR, have advanced the field, the global features obtained by leveraging the global-range modeling capacity of the unconstrained attention mechanism compromise the model's attention to the salient structures in certain scenarios.
arXiv:2607. 25338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Achieving a coherent integration of spectral richness and spatial fidelity remains a central objective in hyperspectral image fusion.
Multi-modality image fusion (MMIF) enhances scene representation by exploiting complementary cues from different modalities. Adverse weather, however, causes significant image degradation, disrupting feature representation and requiring simultaneous feature restoration and cross-modal complementarity.
Learning-based stereo matching models struggle in underwater environments due to scarce in-domain data and the difficulty of extracting discriminative correspondences from degraded imagery. In this work, we present $\textbf{AquaStereo}$, a perception-enhanced framework with a data simulation pipeline and a self-distillation strategy that jointly address data scarcity and feature degradation in underwater stereo matching.
arXiv:2312. 08230v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Detecting partial extrinsic symmetry in 3D geometry is a fundamental yet persistent challenge in computer vision and graphics, critical for tasks ranging from shape completion to procedural generation.
Cross-modal place recognition (CMPR) aims to identify the same location across heterogeneous sensing modalities, such as vision and LiDAR. Existing methods commonly bridge the modality gap using complex alignment modules, multi-stage training, or full fine-tuning of pretrained backbones.
